Rating 71.7
The Tubac Golf Resort sits along the banks of the Santa Cruz River, providing a lush landscape of mature trees and cottonwood groves. The Anza/Rancho golf course is one of three different 18-hole combinations at the resort, which features 27 holes in total. The Anza's par-3 ninth hole has an island green reminiscent of the 17th hole at TPC Sawgrass. The Rancho nine's fourth hole is known for being in the Kevin Costner golf movie "Tin Cup." It is also home to what has been nicknamed the "Tubac Triangle," a challenging set of holes that includes the longest par 3, par 4, and par 5 at the resort. The eighth hole is part of this set; at 651 yards it is even longer than some of the par 5s on the PGA Tour.

Improved course conditions.
Core conditions have improved from several weeks ago. Greens are rolling well. Some issue with fringe around greenside trap on Anza 7. Seems they are keeping everything watered even during these very very hot days.

Maintenance
The only issue we had on Monday is that maintenance workers were soaking the greens while we were attempting to play. Those greens should be watered the night before or the early morning BEFORE golfers start playing. It's actually rude and unprofessional for Tubac course to have workers out while golfers are out.

Course and Staff Great
I love this course. It is wide enough and open to keep you in play and you have to think about your shots off the tee.
I would say that the course is kinda confusing in terms of layout and driving it can get a little wonky at times.
